A cache of rare gold coins and a 900-year-old gold earring were discovered at the port of Caesarea in Israel.
The lucky find during an excavation is said to be evidence of the Crusaders’ conquest of the port city, The Jerusalem Post reports.
A small bronze pot was found a few days ago at the Caesarea National Park, and inside it were 24 gold coins and a gold earring, according to the Antiquities Authority.
The cache was found hidden between two stones in the side of a wall, located in a house in a neighborhood that dated from the Abbasid and Fatimid periods (909-1171 CE)
